Based on the novel by New York Times bestselling author Karen Kingsbury, Like Dandelion Dust is a compelling drama that focuses on a young boy who lives with his parents on the coast of Florida. Joey's days are spent playing with his cousins, sailing with his dad, and making up stories with his mom.

It's a perfect life until the day they receive a disturbing phone call: a stranger's decision could tear Joey away from the comfort and security of the only home he's ever known. One family is determined to keep the son they love, the other is determined to begin the life they've always dreamed of. Joey's future rests in their hands and someone must make the bravest decision in life. Sometimes the greatest love is letting go.
